I have a very old computer and I need help getting it rdy to be a Crysis machine. I want to play online with absoulutlry NO CHOPPY GRAPHICS AKA Lag. I dont care how the graphics look as long as its smooth and i repeat NO LAG. I am going to link a site with my comp info on it
Don bother buying a new monitor, it wont help with smoothness.
Get the best gfx card you can afford for that system and play at a low res and lowest settings and you may be ok. But be warned the game WILL look like crap, you will not even get smooth gfx at a farcry 1 standard.
If I was advising you, it would be to buy a FAST new machine with a good gfx card (4850,4870,260,280,4870x2), the pc you have now is ok for home office stuff but far too dated for the latest generation games.
OS – Windows XP / Vista
Processor – Intel Core 2 DUO @ 2.2GHz or AMD Athlon 64 X2 4400+
Memory – 2.0 GB RAM
GPU – NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTS/640 or similar
You know, as far as trolling is concerned, you ain't very good at it, i mean you surely ain't this stupid for it to be an actual genuine question are you. Perhaps you ought to drown yourself in an acid bath to rid the world of your genes.
Strangestranger did your balls fall off or something? You seem really angry
Some people are just dumb (or illiterate, dependant on how offensive you wish to be).
Charper2013 - If you want to build your own PC you need to know how they go together. Strip and clean your rig, make sure you have a laptop or something spare in case you put it back together wrong As for running Crysis with no lag....forget it with that budget, its impossible.
I spent 3 times that and i can run most options on High. Ultra High does not work.
Ideally you need a 64 bit system, with a high end Quad Core processor, 4Mb RAM and ideally 2 high end Graphics card.
DOnt forget its pointless to buy all these without the right power input from your PSU, Cooling from your Fans and Case along with a Motherboard that can support and hold all these features.
Add to this a good Hard Drive, Optical Drives, Interfaces, Sound System and you have yourself a Crysis ready PC!
Provided you can build it that it.
Ask for money for Xmas pressies and get a prebuild off eBay if this seems daunting.
"The usage of the word "gigabyte" is ambiguous: the value depends on the context. When referring to RAM sizes and file sizes, it traditionally has a binary definition, of 10243 bytes. When referring to disk storage capacities and the transmission of data over telecommunication lines, it means exactly 10003 bytes, since the prefix "giga-" refers to 1000 "megas". In order to address this confusion, currently the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) promotes the use of the term "gibibyte" for the binary definition. This position is endorsed by other standards organizations including the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), the International Committee for Weights and Measures (CPIM) and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
It is commonly abbreviated GB or Gbyte (not to be confused with Gb, which is used for a gigabit)."
screw that, that's using decimal. aww, really should know this. 4 million bits/8 to get bytes but it ain't 4 million decimal form. Oh i don't know my brain is crawling today.
